Anybody used American Star A Arms? They seem WAY cheaper than most other manufacturers. The old saying is you get what you pay for so just wanted to know if anybody has bought a set and what they think of them?
Cheers

Got a set of +3 a-arms on my raptor 700 with elka factory racing shocks and they are a great a-arm.
They seem as good as any other.
The tie rods are solid and seem like they are made from quality material. |

I have standard size A arms, with the heim joints, these are tough as nails, love them, have used their tie rods for years, my first set of tie rods lasted 300 hours!!! wouldnt use any thing else on the trails.

try get the ones with the sealed ball joints as the open hemi joints wear out and get dirt/dust in them
